Chapter 6: OOC

Just getting this started. I'm just gathering a few more details from people and then I'll post the Chapter 6 IC thread. It'll start essentially with a summary of what your characters are doing over the next 4 hours or so. The exact nature of it depends on some of the finer details I'm asking for now, and will likely be a fairly long post, but should advance things nicely.

Additionally, for the sake of expediting the flow of the game lets try to avoid line-by-line dialogues unless it is very important (ie. important NPC involved). Instead plans of action and the like can be done in OOC and then communicated succinctly in IC by one player/character who summarizes it. Of course feel free it add in some flavour text/dialogue when describing actions or reactions.

While Vanyra, Yuu, and Qwe are waiting for Zelpuz to return, Vanyra will get some rest.

Just so people are aware I sent a private message to each of you in regards to the start of the next Chapter. So if you haven't responded could you please do so, thanks.

So I need to know a couple things here:

1) What is Zelpuz going to tell Myria?

2) What ship does Yuu want to take, the early one, which doesn't quite go the distance, or the later one that will take him all the way?

I assume Zelpuz will have no trouble to get to Myrria. He'll communicate mostly mentally with her and update her on what happened (I assume he did that at least a few days ago, so catching up from there). Including the questioning of Lasrane and the vision from Vanyra (to explain the urgency).

Jan, you can respond to Myria's suggestion in IC; basically does he think checking the office is worth it or not, and why?

Could I use a random rodent or similar that is running around and connect via telepathic sight so I can phase to a place that the rodent sees (hoping it won't be in between two walls, maybe a fly or so would be better)?

Unfortunately that is a separate power (Sensory Link), you can read thoughts and memories but not real-time sensory input. Could be an avenue of advancement for Zelpuz.

Also two things:

Brett; what is Yuu doing after he gets the tickets?

Jan; assuming Zelpuz and Myria go to the office please make a Search and Notice check.

Telepathic Sight (Sensory Link 3) (Alternate; DC 13)

And I rolled the dice.

Jan, Search is a skill modified by the Int attribute, do you not have it?

Seems I don't, that's why I just rolled a dice with the note I added, my rule books are on my old computer, I hope, I think it got formatted, so it's hard to tell if I still have them. I'll try to look for them soon.

Right; seems I overlooked the Telepathic Sight power when looking at your sheet. So you could see through the eyes of an animal and use that to teleport. I would suggest a regular animal versus an insect as you are not accustomed to the odd visual input/interpretations that insects, and thus I'd say that it would be inaccurate at this time.

You also don't have any ranks in Search; perhaps something to buy in the future. You have +2 due to INT, but that won't help with a roll of 8.

He'll make his way to an agency just a little to the left. Order 2 passenger tickets to somewhere totally different. Then go to an agency just a little to the right.. and do the same thing, order 2 tickets to a third destination. Cheapest possible for both. And he'll be a little more open about who he is... like, look like he's hiding but allow a family crest or something else to reveal, but looking like he's keeping it hidden. I think you know what I mean.

If the door of the Order master had a crack, we could have teleported in. Oh well, guess we need to roll better in these situations.

So Zelpuz and Myria arrive back at Vanyra's place.

Need to know what Yuu is going to do about the guards; is he going to try to avoid them somehow or just try to talk his way out? Though so far he's only seen people coming into the area rather than leaving, so he's not entirely sure they'll question anyone walking out.

What's the fastest way out of town from the harbor district, to the North? the West? the South?  And is one of them safer in the sense of being less penned in and allowing more travel options?

The fastest way would be west, heading inland, assuming you really don't want to go via boat. You're in a city of over million people, so there is no particular route that is less crowded as the city was developed around the harbour. Taking the major roads would be easiest.
